Here she comes! The Black Diamond Express to Hell with Sin the Engineer holding the throttle wide open; Pleasure is the headlight, and the devil is the conductor. You can feel the roaring of the express and the moanin' of the drunkards, liars, gamblers and other folk who have got aboard. They are hell-bound and they don't want to go. The train makes eleven stops but nobody can get off - Vocalion advertisement for Rev. A.W. Nix's 1927 recording Black Diamond Express to Hell

Fred McDowell- Goin' Down to Louisiana
« on: March 20, 2008, 01:10:22 PM »
I'm wondering if anyone knows what album McDowell's eight minute and 21 seconds version of "Goin' Down to Louisiana" is on. I checked the Wirz discography by hitting Control + F and typing in "Louisiana", but was unable to find it.

It's just one of five previously unissued titles recorded in December 1965 by Alan Bates on that CD. The remaining first appeared on the 1965 Polydor LP 423.249, see Black Lion etc releases at Stefan's page.
